Ok, I got that, but can you give me an exact moment in the song of when I did it, that was obviously different from how Paul Simon sang it?
That might be easier for you to explain and me to understand.
Your phrasing is excellent (and original) during this part: "Home, where my thought's escaping Home, where my music's playing Home, where my love lies waiting" You sing "home" just AFTER the first beat; Simon & Garfunkel sing "home" ON the first beat.
so the melody changes... the notes after "home" are shorter cause you end in the same beat that Paul Simon or so... Elvis used to sing just the same line and end late or soon depending on if he started soon or late... no change of the melody then. (and that means that if you ever plan to record a duet of yourself over Elvis you never know when to sing every line cause it's not on time... unless you're an Elvis fan and know when he starts singing in every line of the song) ...
the starts of every line ... 0.37 a little bit late ...Ollie, it's not "late." His delayed phrasing there is quite deliberate and effective. It's still "in the pocket." Great singers don't always sing "in the box."

btw, there was some riot in some Withney Houston show recently with people leaving and complaining... I don't know what happens to her... all I know is she should not sing now.
I will always love you (live recently)
Whitney should refund their money. I don't judge her for using drugs, but -- if you're going to do it -- don't do the drug that's going to ruin your best instrument.
Well, it's not "a mistake". "Great singers don't make mistakes, they just take creative nuances"
. Is it a mistake when Freddie screamed too much?, or when Paul high voice sounds broken? So it's the same for Elvis, is kind of "his way", you know... But to be honest, I don't know if he could do it just in time if needed... I guess he would but wouldn't sing so well... cause he would had to especially focus in that. Well, everybody says Withney's voice problem is because of drugs... but well, Elvis took all kind of things... and his singing wasn't worse. (He sounded more like Pavarotti and Meatloaf in 1977 because of his weight, not because of the drugs...).

The best way to judge that is by listening to Elvis' versions of r&b and black-gospel songs. Good Rockin' Tonight - 1954 (a 19-year-old Elvis):
I Got A Feeling In My Body - 1973 (a 38-year-old Elvis): Run On - 1966 (gospel song -- a 31-year-old Elvis): -
Random question to you fine musicians - a couple of years ago, someone (a member of pm.com) took Paul McCartney's unreleased song Waterspout and basically finished it with their own arrangement...was that one of you musicians in the Global Wings community?

That's a question for Bjorn, Gary, Brian or Fil -- most of whom rarely pop in here these days. I wish I knew. Were guitars, additional drums and vocals added to this mix you heard?

Everything except additional vocals - and this also includes a more prominent bass line

I Got A Felling, not so much but out of time most of the song Run On... out of time all the song except some lines, as usual
The timing of the singer matches the timing of the band, it all "fits" together... BUT!(so what? :lol
well, that's an old "fight" between singers and songwriters... Most of the "singers-singers" get on his nerves with the being "out of time" thing... It virtually never happens to singer-songwriters (like Lennon and McCartney, Freddie, Elton... and if it happens they fix it somehow). There's a funny scene in the movie Amadeus when Mozart goes to a rehearsal of his new opera and corrects all the time the timing to the singer. The tenor goes singing lines... and Mozart goes "late!, soon!, late!", til the tenor is on his nerves... This a perfect counter-example
Queen-Save Me live in Montreal
(and that's why I've posted this one...) Freddie loses the timing in... 1:25! but he somehow fixes it...

Not me, great song by the way... Do you remember how did the singer sounded? I mean, the kind of voice... Similar to Paul or different?

I have no trouble singing along to Elvis' records. Ever. Maybe it's a "funk" thing, and you haven't quite grasped that concept. I may not be the best singer, but I definitely have rhythm, and Elvis is a master of it.

Granted, I defend Elvis passionately, but to say "Good Rockin' Tonight" is "out of time" for the majority of the song is the most laughable thing I've ever heard. With all due respect, my buddy.

No, I don't mean he lacks rhythm at all, when he starts every line he's always in great... fantastic! rhythm but he's almost always out of synch with the band... Well, forget singing for a moment, for instance, you know some rock singers do a special gesture in the end of a song in concerts... like jumping or whatever... Elvis did that out of time almost always too... I mean like when Freddie ends the song with his fist in the air. As for the funk concept, I don't have a clue about that, maybe it's related, hey, I don't know... For instance... See See Rider-Aloha concert
2:54 Elvis moves up the guitar too soon... and I think that something similar happens in every song of the concert. I guess that's not a funk thing... but maybe is... -

The band stops when he stops. Drummer Ronnie Tutt was the one that was late. But it's a live performance, and that ending of "See See Rider" is what they call "trashing" the ending -- which ends with everyone hitting the final "crash" in unison. Sometimes everyone hits it at the same time; sometimes they don't. Everyone follows Elvis' cue -- not the other way around. Same with Paul and his band.

ok, then maybe is a "funk concept" (as you say), and he did it deliberately. I think I've been analyzing Elvis and others too much.

as there is not much happening I'll tell you about my last 2 karaoke nights... I had my teeth taken and I couldn't sing for some days. If I tried it was like I had no voice from the first note.
Before that some requested me to sing Purple Rain... I haven't heard the song since a lot of time ago... but I did it anyway. "as I know you dare to sing anything...", she said... so I'm a magneto for requests... not because I do the petitions well but because I sing any style On night 2, I begun with Free Bird, just because I wanted to hear the 4-minute guitar solo Free Bird - Lynyrd Skynyrd (1973) but the song faded away after the end of the vocals... Then I did Born to be wild, Bohemian Rhapsody (again), and then a duet with some girl I've met there (I like to do duets with everybody...), a Spanish song no-one will know here. And the end I saw that man who wanted to sing Hey Jude with me, so we did. But it was not great, no chemistry (no joking time...)... we were 2 feet apart and it seemed a continent apart... he just sang the song all the time (well, until he couldn't go on...) instead of letting some lines for me.... so I did harmonies and so... no great thing to be recorded....Some days later I went quite unsure of myself to the karaoke. I did Singing in the Rain wondering if I could do it or not. As I did it, I tried Let It Be, and as I did it I tried Bohemian Rhapsody. And, as usual, after the "serious stuff" (not so serious on Singing in the rain and parts of Bohemian...) it came the "joking stuff" and I kind of did this one

Withney Houston maybe should stop touring... What about Aerosmith???
hey, I'm a rock and roll fan, and I don't like Pop Idol shows... and I know hardcore Aerosmith fans will not agree with me... but I really think Adam Lambert does it better... just the same with Whole Lotta Love...Aerosmith-Crying (Argentina Live 2007)

Hey everybody! Lots of interesting stuff here, Evie, love your S&G renditions, and Homeward Bound is one of your best so far!
Hope you enjoy it!Hey Ollie and Audi, Elvis topic here, like it, been a fan since I was 5 so, keep it up, and some music theory in this place can't hurt, right!?!
Hmm, I can't remember anyone here doing a cover of Waterspout, never even heard of a cover of that song actually. While I'm rambling on, got a new cover on Youtube, a song by Glen Hansard of Swell Season, a perfect song in my ears, love the message of it! SAY IT TO ME NOW

Well, I'm an Elvis fan only since 2 years or so ago, so maybe many things I say are silly... Anyway, I think I've been analyzing too much "my divos"... ok, what do you think about Elvis timing? the way he starts to sing verses out of time... deliberately or not...?

Are you kidding??
He's got so much feel, groove, it's called syncopation!! That is the way a singer that is GREAT sing... and even though I haven't checked out all the clips posted, yes I know his 70's live stuff is perhaps slightly unfocused a occasions, he still had tremendous soul in is voice... I mean he is as Audi says so much "in the box" as you can be! So, deliberate?!? Well, he SINGS, that is deliberate!

Hey Ollie and Audi, Elvis topic here, like it, been a fan since I was 5 so, keep it up, and some music theory in this place can't hurt, right!?!
Well, I'm an Elvis fan only since 2 years or so ago, so maybe many things I say are silly... Anyway, I think I've been analyzing too much "my divos"... ok, what do you think about Elvis timing? the way he starts to sing verses out of time... deliberately or not...?
Are you kidding??
He's got so much feel, groove, it's called syncopation!! That is the way a singer that is GREAT sing... and even though I haven't checked out all the clips posted, yes I know his 70's live stuff is perhaps slightly unfocused a occasions, he still had tremendous soul in is voice... I mean he is as Audi says so much "in the box" as you can be! So, deliberate?!? Well, he SINGS, that is deliberate!
Well, it seems I don't get the syncopation concept... All I say is like his singing more when he sings on time and doesn't do that... Well, in the start of Queen's Another one bites the dust, there's a similar thing, the famous bass line is kind of out of time and I guess that is that "funky" feeling... only Elvis did it always with all kinds of stuff.
